Quantcast Vegetarian StarRufus Wainwright Debuts “Dinner With The Band” With Rabbit Meat

amfAR New York Gala To Kick Off Fall 2010 Fashion Week - Inside

The Independent Film Channel’s Dinner With The Band debuted its second season with host and chef Sam Mason inviting singer Rufus Wainwright to cook up schnitzel, spaetzle and sauerkraut.

The schnitzel, a dish traditionally made with meat anyway, was a rabbit rolled in breadcrumbs.

As a sheltered vegetarian who grew up on organic tofu and Amy’s dinners, only being forced to look at the norm animal entrees of chicken and beef, the idea of bunny burgers was unbelievable and required some extra investigation (April Fool’s is over, right?).

Those bunnies only exist to lay chocolate covered, cream filled Cadbury eggs around Easter.

Sure enough, there are evenĀ USDA recommendations for cooking Thumper, along with this “how to video” you’ll see below.

If future Dinner with the Band shows are anything like this week’s premiere, you need to run like the wind from this opening act before the main group even takes the stage.
